You made the right calls on when to proceed or when to turn around & back track. There’s not much anyone can do when the road seems to evaporate right in front of you. I had a similar situation once in the Big South Fork NRA. I was trying to go between 2 cemeteries on the opposite side of a mountain. The maps said there was a forest service road that connected the two cemeteries but after a short drive the road was so overgrown that it disappeared. The drone would be a great tool to help make the should I keep going decision.
I feel your pain haha. There was a part of the video I cut out where I was more visibly disappointed I couldn’t go through there 😂 I didn’t use the drone there because I was worried it would overheat!

Wow I actually did US 50 about 5 years ago. Even stopped at that Casino for a rest and snack stop. That was an amazing trip to Reno. Spent the night in Ely and stayed at that main Casino. I spent 5 years in Alaska and thought I had been in the middle of nowhere. This place has that beat. You can easily forget you are even on planet Earth.
I really enjoy your channel and explore old highways and towns as well. One tip: if you go to online auction sites you can find old Rand McNally maps from 1970’s and 80’s. They come in really handy to cross reference with newer maps when you’re trying to find highways that names have changed, or towns that aren’t marked anymore.
Great scenery but very desolate. The drive through the canyon to hermit’s cabin was awesome. Looked like that road must turn into quite a torrent when the rains come. This has been an enjoyable video series thus far.
Wow! If you got out in the middle of nothing and nowhere and broke down. You would be screwed, blued, an tattooed if you didn't have cell service. Good luck and Thumbs up 👍
What a amazing adventure. Only you with the curiosity of a cat and off road adventures spirit could provide. Scenery of Utah is amazing & unique sunset. Thanks ,John for sharing hiking experienced with heat rough conditions. Interestingt old cabin. Great adventure.
Hermit's Cabin.... what a cool little find and location! On the vid I saw the shelf which appeared to have a couple glass bottles and many books/notebooks on it? What were those, Wiseguy!??! I must know!
thank you for sharing, i have learned so much by traveling with you. we seem to love the same things, i would love to see everything you are sharing with me, but cant live long enough to get it done. you do it so well, i feel that i have been there. thank you so much . linda
This was a great video! I think you made the right decision about traveling old 50. Back in 1999 I drove west to east on US 50 across Nevada and into Utah. I may have been a little jaded in my outlook, having just traversed the spectacular scenery of the Nevada mountains, and Great Basin National Park, but I don’t have any particularly strong memory of the road through Utah to Delta. I’m sure it was lovely desert scenery, but nothing compared with what you saw on the old route.
I tell you what, you're a better person than I am. I hate hot weather and if it's 117 where I am you're not getting me outside to eat ice cream much less hike around in the middle of nowhere. @@TravelwithaWiseguy
Boy, whoever that hermit was, he was serious about being alone! Beautiful country, but one in which respect for nature should be remembered. There are no gas stations, stores, help if you get lost or incapacitated, mechanics, etc. I think you did the right thing by turning around. There weren't any cars or people anywhere. Anything could happen! Great video. Thanks for the trip.
Geez, that would have made me nervous being out in the middle of nowhere. Did you see any other cars on the old 50? Glad you turned around, I'm surprised you went as far as you did. It was kind of a nail biter. Thanks for the adventure.
Great drive... very reminiscent of here in Australia with the roads . Not sure id do that drive here in a SUV ... only in a 4x4... looking forward to the next video...
It is pronounced "Sipeo" not "Skipeo". And you should have included something about Lehmans Cave and Wheeler Peak while you were in Great Basin National Park. I grew up in Ruth and Ely Nevada and lived in Millard County, Utah for 20 years. Near the Ruth turn off is a place called Garnet Hill were we went and looked for Garnets. If ever you go there you need to watch for rattle snakes. Oh and you missed Kings canyon on the "new" highway 50. It is pretty scenic but not as scenic as the way you went. Thanks for the ride!
I really enjoyed your trip in western Utah!❤❤❤ I don’t think I would have been brave enough to take that rural road? I would have been in an RV. Would an RV have made that trip? I envy you so much!❤❤❤😊😊😊
What an adventure! I would love this, always thrilling to go off the beaten path! Curious.....I didn't notice any other vehicles while you were traveling on this stretch. Was there any traffic, or were you a lone wolf on this day? Awesome video!
Great stuff, lots of exploring! Fascinating John, would love to have accompanied you. What is it with Utah and the Mormon faith? Can't wait for the next instalment.
I hope you do not take this as some old man giving you one of those "how it used to be" spiels, but I have a question. In 1940, my parents, sister and I .....oh, two grandparents too......got in the new 1940 Chevy and headed to California . Only being a couple of years old, I don't remember a whole lot oa that trip. Since US 50 goes throught Hutchinson, I am assuming they took that route to California. In your videos, taking the Old US 50, it seems to be mostly a gravel road. I was wondering if those old dusty roads were originally paved roades.....or do you suppose they used to be gravel all they way to California in 1940?
It’s a good question. I don’t know for sure, but I assume there was some non-paved parts of the road back then. Especially in this very desolate part of the trip. Would’ve been a heckuva trip in 1940!
You need a good four-wheel drive pickup and a satellite phone if you're going to continue to go out in the middle of nowhere where there's no cell service.
Another amazing video! Does the Old Hermit's Cabin remind anyone besides me of that little cave in the mountains where Frank and his gang hide out in "Once Upon a Time in the West"?
Salina KS. Salina Utah. I wonder how many other towns are named Salina? About 5 miles north of Sedgwick KS . their is a small cemetery. The last time some one was to rest there was 1928.
Thanks for this series . I’m a Brit and am aiming to visit every state in the USA. My next trip is US 50 from San Fran to Grand Junction the down the Million Dollar Highway to San Jose and across to Flagstaff and up to Vegas . What appeals to me is the 2 lane driving , I drove through New Jersey last year and the driving was quite aggressive, and I live in London and have driven in Italy . Hope this trip gives me time to drive and appreciate the stunning scenery. Love what you do thank you 🙏
I really enjoyed this adventure. As I've said before, you can find a lot of interesting places when you slow down and take the dirt roads. I watch some RUclipsrs in Utah. They recover/ rescue folks that get stuck, broken down etc. When that Utah sand gets hot- as the temperatures you showed- it gets very powder like. If you don't air down your tires you'll just sink in it. Most of the folks they rescue are visitors in rental vehicles that don't realize this. I was worried about the sand, but it looked like you had a good rock ground under it. It's a wonder you didn't see side by sides, quads and such in those areas. If you ever get a chance to take a tour in a side by side, etc. it's a fun adventure. Always enjoy the drone shots, I like seeing the country. Hope you got some good rest, you earned it with all the hiking. Thanks for taking the long way. Stay safe and GOD bless
I’m sure they keep in good business with helping tourists like myself 😂😂 It was a random decision to go that way and I felt good about the vehicle I was in. Wouldn’t have done with my car ha! It turned out to be a lot of fun and I learned a lot!
The Hermits cabin was. WW1 vet with shellshock/PTSD that stayed out there. Lived off the land, people brought him supplies and supplemented his income with moonshine.
Thanks for taking me places I will never be able to go. I've been a long way down US 50 east and west from Kansas City, but I would never go down the old parts in this video, especially the old cabin in the rocks. Looking forward to the next episode.
105 is not as hot as I thought. 117.... goodness, it's the moisture you know (yeah, right). Do you see any snakes where you go ? Give us a shot of your track team, seriously. 2 maybe 3 minutes of your track team would give us info about how they are doing. Very nice video, thank you for posting ! Be good, be safe.
Yeah it was a hot one that day! You can follow our track team on a variety of social media platforms too as well as GoShockers.com 😊 As for this time of the year we are mostly just practicing in preparation for the indoor season in January.
The old hermit cabin was interesting. The closing cloud shot was beautiful. You have to wonder why they engineered old 50 to traverse BFE? What was the destination? The drone footage was great. Looking forward to next week
This adventure gets to be more of an adventure the further you have traveled! Makes me wonder if I had made that trip a year ago to bring an old Cadillac back. If today's 50 isn't any better than the old 50 you traveled, I would of been in a work of hurt! Not that much ground clearance to an old Caddy. The scenery you encountered on this section is beyond belief. There are days that I may of considered moving to hermit's cabin. But then again, we all have had those days. Thank you for another great ride! Am more than ready to see the journey on into Nevada. I will be waiting at the end of my driveway!
I keep wondering what you would do should you run out of gas or get bit by a rattlesnake or a scorpion and seeing how there's no cell phone service. I just can't imagine going the way you go. Happy trails to you and God bless.
I think I would have had other person on this part. What a lonely place. Thanks for letting me come along
That would’ve been “wise” 😂
Being alone is the idea! Been there - wonderful & peaceful - NO PEOPLE!
The vast amount of uninhibited land amazes me, yet there is a road that goes through it. I really liked the per say hidden ".Hermit " .
It really is amazing - and more to come in Nevada!
Great sunset and the old US 50 was very scenic especially the pass.
Agreed! 🌅
That was an interesting road trip, thank you. It reminded me of a perfect Yogiism: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." -Yogi Berra
Haha yes! Great quote 😂
I'm glad you went the old way, kinda scary in places 😂
Me too haha 😂
You made the right calls on when to proceed or when to turn around & back track. There’s not much anyone can do when the road seems to evaporate right in front of you.

I like that look on your face when you said" that marks the end of old hwy 50" . I think you were glad to make it that far.
Haha yeah I was tired and ready for the hotel 😂
You always find the roads none of us would travel. Thank you for trying those roads
Thank you very much 😊
Tremendous video John! You have outdone yourself...no easy task! Thanks for the adventure.
Thank you Art! Much appreciated!
Hermit's cabin, what beautiful scenery.
Great 👍 video 👍....wise guy 😊
Thank you kindly!
In my last life, we went to Lehman Caves, in Baker, then drove to the Border Inn to eat. My ex did love the one armed bandits!
As always...
Nice! I haven’t been there but would love to someday!
Sitting here watching from safety. Yeah, go on!
😂😂
🤣😂🤣😂 Ha Ha Ha!❤❤❤
IN MY WANDERINGS I HAVE FOUND WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE 3 DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF HIGHWAY 50 BETWEEN LEBO AND EMPORIA , ALTHOUGH I DIDNT HAVE ANY OLD MAPS OF THE AREA AT THAT TIME!
SPEAKING OF TELEVISION, I RAN THE ALASKA HIGHWAY TWICE, DELIVERING TRUCKS TO ALASKA!
IN CANADA THERE WERE LARGE AREAS WITH NO TV SERVICE, BUT THE MOTELS HAD TELEVISIONS!
WHEN CHECKING IN THEY WOULD ASK IF YOU WANTED TO WATCH TV , AND IF SO WOULD GIVE YOU A HAND FULL OF TAPES FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT!!
Oh my that is hilarious about the tapes 😂😂 Jealous of your travels through Alaska - I’m thinking of a future trip up there 😊
hermits cabin. amazing
Wow I actually did US 50 about 5 years ago. Even stopped at that Casino for a rest and snack stop. That was an amazing trip to Reno. Spent the night in Ely and stayed at that main Casino. I spent 5 years in Alaska and thought I had been in the middle of nowhere. This place has that beat. You can easily forget you are even on planet Earth.
That is awesome! It’s a really unique adventure for sure 😊
You have a very adventurous personality and what seems to be a lot of faith to be out there in that heat where no one may be around for days.. 😎
Love the travel tonight!!!
But $127 a night!!! Omg
I agree 😬
I really enjoy your channel and explore old highways and towns as well. One tip: if you go to online auction sites you can find old Rand McNally maps from 1970’s and 80’s. They come in really handy to cross reference with newer maps when you’re trying to find highways that names have changed, or towns that aren’t marked anymore.
Thank you very much! I’ve also found some older detailed maps on state Highway websites. This is new to me so I’m learning as I go 😊
Great scenery but very desolate. The drive through the canyon to hermit’s cabin was awesome. Looked like that road must turn into quite a torrent when the rains come. This has been an enjoyable video series thus far.
Yeah I imagine during rains it is impossible to pass through! Thanks so much!
Wow! If you got out in the middle of nothing and nowhere and broke down. You would be screwed, blued, an tattooed if you didn't have cell service.
Good luck and Thumbs up 👍
Whew 😅
Great drone work, great show❤
Thank you kindly!
What a amazing adventure. Only you with the curiosity of a cat and off road adventures spirit could provide. Scenery of Utah is amazing & unique sunset. Thanks ,John for sharing hiking experienced with heat rough conditions. Interestingt old cabin. Great adventure.
Thank you! I had a lot of fun - appreciate the comment!
This was a special video - I learn so much from you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 😊
You got me a little nervous being out there in the desert by yourself but the adventure is great. Watch for rattlesnakes out there!
Thank you for the concern! Didn’t see any rattlers that day!
Hermit's Cabin.... what a cool little find and location! On the vid I saw the shelf which appeared to have a couple glass bottles and many books/notebooks on it? What were those, Wiseguy!??! I must know!
I think it’s a geocache place where people leave little items, but not 100% sure. I didn’t see anything earth shattering. 😂
Hi john great to see the country some amazing sites thanks alot . Cheers mate🇦🇺
Thank you! The USA has so many great places to explore!
thank you for sharing, i have learned so much by traveling with you. we seem to love the same things, i would love to see everything you are sharing with me, but cant live long enough to get it done. you do it so well, i feel that i have been there. thank you so much . linda
You are so welcome! Very nice of you to say - thank you 😊
Great trip thanks for visiting hermit’s cabin
My pleasure! Thank you!
Phew what a trip the roads wow the old cabin is really cool the scenery amazing thanks for the video
Thanks! It was a lot of fun!
Great video. Thanks a bunch for sharing with us. It's beautiful.
So nice of you to say 😊
I love it. I don't remember ever going out there. Like your shirt, I've been through there many times. Thanks for Sharing 😊
Thank you! I kind of got Slapped around this day 😂

Thank you! I’m glad I went that way too - it was a lot of fun and very beautiful!
Well if it isn't the Weisenheimer Wiseguy 🤣 I guess I don't see it. "Great Stone Face" just looked like a big rock to me. 117 degrees!!! 🥵😵
Hahaha! I should’ve added my face overlaying it 😂
If you did that, you would earn the name Wiseguy @@TravelwithaWiseguy
I tell you what, you're a better person than I am. I hate hot weather and if it's 117 where I am you're not getting me outside to eat ice cream much less hike around in the middle of nowhere. @@TravelwithaWiseguy
It was a dry heat 😂😂
@@TravelwithaWiseguy 🤣😂🤣😂
took a rental car offroad onto the oregon trail where it crosses the continental divide in at south pass Wyoming .. so worth it
I've been on the Scipio-Salina section of 50 once and it was cool
Great travels. Keep going!
Thank you! Will do!
Awesome trip….
Yes it was!
I’ve got to say that I think that this was the top episode that I’ve seen on this channel. I was completely invested.
Very nice of you to say - thank you 😊
Boy, whoever that hermit was, he was serious about being alone! Beautiful country, but one in which respect for nature should be remembered. There are no gas stations, stores, help if you get lost or incapacitated, mechanics, etc. I think you did the right thing by turning around. There weren't any cars or people anywhere. Anything could happen! Great video. Thanks for the trip.
Thank you! Yeah it was a little stressful and disappointing I couldn’t go all the way through the desert part, but overall a great fun day!
Thanks for taking me along, what adventure, always look forward to traveling with you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it - my pleasure!
I love this series Utah is so beautiful! What type of wild life do you see!
Antelope!
Another great video ,thanks for taking me along. Driving roads like old 50 no need to stop for the scenic overlooks .
Very true! The scenic views are all around!
Geez, that would have made me nervous being out in the middle of nowhere. Did you see any other cars on the old 50? Glad you turned around, I'm surprised you went as far as you did. It was kind of a nail biter. Thanks for the adventure.
Thank you! I saw one car on the older road all day - which was very enjoyable 😊 fun times!
John, watch out for the mountain lions, bobcats and other big animals with sharp teeth in those remote areas while on foot.
Thank you! I’ve been careful 😊
Great drive... very reminiscent of here in Australia with the roads . Not sure id do that drive here in a SUV ... only in a 4x4... looking forward to the next video...
Definitely need a reliable vehicle! Thank you!
Wonderhussy has been there.
Realy
It is pronounced "Sipeo" not "Skipeo". And you should have included something about Lehmans Cave and Wheeler Peak while you were in Great Basin National Park.

Thanks for the info!
"you may wonder why I want to do the gravel road" because you're in a rental car and you don't care 🤣🤣
Sorry Avis 😂
I really enjoyed your trip in western Utah!❤❤❤ I don’t think I would have been brave enough to take that rural road? I would have been in an RV. Would an RV have made that trip? I envy you so much!❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thank you! You could take a RV on the main road but I wouldn’t try it on the backroads I was on!
What an adventure! I would love this, always thrilling to go off the beaten path! Curious.....I didn't notice any other vehicles while you were traveling on this stretch. Was there any traffic, or were you a lone wolf on this day? Awesome video!
I saw maybe one vehicle all day on those backroads. And that one looked at me funny 😂
Great stuff, lots of exploring! Fascinating John, would love to have accompanied you. What is it with Utah and the Mormon faith? Can't wait for the next instalment.
Thank you! Utah is the land of Brigham Young!
Ah, I see, I had to look him up, I'm not at all familiar with the Church of the latter day saints.... all new to me@@TravelwithaWiseguy
You missed King’s canyon on the main route. Super cool canyon. And Notch peak. Highest vertical drop in the world. 3000 feet straight down.
Did you see a single soul along that old US 50?
One vehicle 😂
Great video brother! Do you know Rendville, Ohio? ( The smallest incorporated town in Ohio )
I’ve never been there but would love to go and do a video on the smallest towns in Ohio (my home state)!
$127!? I think that’s the most I’ve seen you pay for a “no-frills” motel. 😫
Haha probably so! Not many options 😂😂
We're there any people at the casino? So funny to have one in the middle of nowhere.
There were a few people there that night. Maybe 10. We’re not far from Baker, Nevada. Small community.
127 dollars, that's a lot of money
Yep - not many options - they could’ve charged $227!
I guess you could have stayed at Hermit's Cabin @@TravelwithaWiseguy
If I’d only known what is was maybe I would’ve 😂😂
I hope you do not take this as some old man giving you one of those "how it used to be" spiels, but I have a question. In 1940, my parents, sister and I .....oh, two grandparents too......got in the new 1940
Chevy and headed to California . Only being a couple of years old, I don't remember a whole lot oa that trip. Since US 50 goes throught Hutchinson, I am assuming they took that route to California.

US 50 not very interesting. Don't think I would ever want to travel it.
You are brave!
To each their own - I found it very interesting!
You need a good four-wheel drive pickup and a satellite phone if you're going to continue to go out in the middle of nowhere where there's no cell service.
Yeah it wasn’t my best decision 😂 although I did have 4-wheel drive 🤷🏼♂️
My question is did you take a gas can with you
I didn’t
Goodness that Hermit's Cabin is out of the way. I can't imagine it gets many visitors. Heck you might have been the only visitor for the year
Looking at the book it had a couple recent visitors but very few!
Another amazing video! Does the Old Hermit's Cabin remind anyone besides me of that little cave in the mountains where Frank and his gang hide out in "Once Upon a Time in the West"?
Historically were some US highways gravel, not paved? 🤔
Great question - I don’t know, but I’m guessing it was gravel for maybe the early parts of its history.
Hermit's cabin? Cool! I could live in a place like that 😊
Right?!
Salina KS. Salina Utah. I wonder how many other towns are named Salina? About 5 miles north of Sedgwick KS . their is a small cemetery. The last time some one was to rest there was 1928.
Google says there are 10 places named Salina in the USA 😊
@@TravelwithaWiseguy thanks have a good day!
You have to have plenty of gas to out in the middle of no where
For sure!
Thanks for this series . I’m a Brit and am aiming to visit every state in the USA.

That will be an awesome trip! The main US 50 does have some traffic but nothing like New Jersey 😂😂
Bold travels on this one! Worthy of some atta boys.
Haha thanks! 😊
Grew up in Hinckley, Delta Rabbits high school mascot. Know 50 West of Hinckley well.
they sure don't want people finding these historical sites, do they? make them hard to find
That may be a good thing the way people vandalize

night time is absolutely magnificent. There are a zillion stars. Shining like diamonds. Unlike anything you have ever seen in your life
♥️
😊 I like that Slapout T-Shirt! 👍😉 Looking Good!!👏
Haha thanks!
Thanks for taking me places I will never be able to go. I've been a long way down US 50 east and west from Kansas City, but I would never go down the old parts in this video, especially the old cabin in the rocks. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thanks so much! It was a lot of fun!
I regret not getting a tshirt in Slapout.. anyway, another great vid man
Thanks! Slapout is great 😂

Good question about the old 50. I was thinking the same although new 50 may have been worse before they could cut through the mountains.
This adventure gets to be more of an adventure the further you have traveled! Makes me wonder if I had made that trip a year ago to bring an old Cadillac back. If today's 50 isn't any better than the old 50 you traveled, I would of been in a work of hurt! Not that much ground clearance to an old Caddy.
The scenery you encountered on this section is beyond belief. There are days that I may of considered moving to hermit's cabin. But then again, we all have had those days.

I would’ve stayed at Hermit’s Cabin but I’m not sure what animals would’ve joined me eventually 😂😂
@@TravelwithaWiseguy Maybe a nice fluffy warm mountain lion to cuddle up with! Yes, and door maybe a good idea before taking up residence.
I keep wondering what you would do should you run out of gas or get bit by a rattlesnake or a scorpion and seeing how there's no cell phone service. I just can't imagine going the way you go. Happy trails to you and God bless.
I wasn’t too far from civilization haha. Has plenty of gas. A rattler may have been more of a problem 😬
That was awesome 👌 👏
Thanks 😁
